Banded June 10th, 2010 - best decisions ever! Very happy with my weight loss although it has slowed way down. I have about 30 more to lose and it is just creeping off. I love being able to find clothes that actually fit and look great - no more Lane Bryant for me :) last weekend I actually shopped at Victorias Secret - I havent shopped there in about 15 years.

Hey, I was banded on June 23. 2010 and I will never look back! I am down 145 pounds and have 35 more to go to my goal. May change it when I get there to more but for now just one step at a time. I was a size 24W and now a 14/16 depending on the brand name. I am 5'9" so that has really helped me hide my weight for years. I am at the point right now where I am truly lost at shopping. I haven't been this size since I was in grade 8 or 9 and that was 18 years ago so the stores that exist now did not then and I am now small enough that plus size stores are too big...so I don't know where to go! I live in Nova Scotia, Canada if anyone has any suggestions :) I should be super excited right now but instead I am super terrified!!

Hello junebugs I was banded June 9, 2010, it's been an interesting journey I've lost 65 pounds, and would like to lose 20 more, I love my band nothing worth having isn't easy , but given the opportunity I would do it again, I love the way I feel and especially the way I look, so for me the journey continues, It's so nice to hear from other people who had their bands done around the same time.:rolleyes:

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
